Have been to bloody loads over the years. Always had a fantastic time and most of the acts are hilarious. Tip us to get a few jugs of beer for the table because it's pretty tight down there and the bar gets proper busy in intervals. Also, never get up to go for a piss when an act us on. Enjoy, you'll have a blast

Yep, went early Feb for my birthday. Mrs P had booked the meal thing and the comedy show. The night we went there were 3 comedians, and the host (who I believe posts here occasionally? ) Thoroughly enjoyed it, but I guess ultimately it's down to who is on and your preferred style of humour. Also, if you don't want to draw attention to yourself, DON'T sit at the front! All in all a great night out

Thanks for the post. Also website shows 3 start times...7pm, 8pm and 10:30pm.........How long are acts?...Surely its not just an hour each performance?

It used to be 2 start times. 7 & 10:30. If you go to the early one it finishes at 10 and then that gives them half hour to sort the place out. No idea what that 8pm is all about. Must be a mistake but check.
Always go to the early one. Acts are fresh and you have enough time to hit a few bars. Be interested to know what you think of it after you go mate

Thanks mate, probably going to have to do the late show as having dinner somewhere before! I'm sure it will be great and will let you know what it was like!

Great stuff mate, enjoy and this has made me realise I haven't been in about a year so now I'm making plans

Seriously?
The 7pm and 10:30 shows are downstairs, the 8pm one is upstairs. The 10:30 show only has 2 comedians rather than 3 and is cheaper.

Depends who's on went last month and all 3 comics were shit , but on another night it's completely the opposite well worth going though if not been, saves the train fare to London to go to comedy store so a good night out if you wanna stay in Brighton to see decent comedians (sometimes )
I've been probably 20-30 times and only had one shit night there. Don't take her if she's offended by naughty words though... and as said above, don't sit down the front (they often try and make you!) Get there 45 minutes before it starts so you have a decent choice of seats.

The 7pm and 8pm shows are £20.00/head or £29.00 with the meal deal. The 10:30pm show is £15.00/head.
The comedians appearing this weekend are: Loretta Maine, Sean Collins, Gerry K with regular MC Stephen Grant. Not sure which two will be at the 10:30pm show but all this info is on the Krater website! http://www.komedia.co.uk/brighton/krater/shows-at-krater/

Justice for the 96...
I sat down the front with the missus (on their advice - they said any banter would likely to be mild). We were in the centre right under the mike stand and it was brilliant. The host went a along the four tables at the front and had a few laughs at/with us but it was all in good spirit and never turned nasty. We had a thoroughly brilliant night - all three acts were good - particularly Doc Brown who you can find on You Tube.
Definitely worth going and don't be put off with a front seat - the view's great!

It's always a good night and as someone mentioned, the host posts here under the name of @ComedySteve
I'm off there tonight for a work do, it's probably my 8th time going to Kratar and I've always enjoyed it. Obviously you have expect some comedians to be weaker than others (a woman that just shouted c*nt a lot springs to mind) but they do try and cater for all tastes so you often get at least one swearing comedian, one with a gimmick and one more middle of the road.

It's quite good that you get a mix of comedians. Some you'll never have heard of, some you may vaguely recognise and sometimes there are more established acts. I've seen Omid Djalili, Milton Jones and I think Reginald D Hunter there as well
I work there, it is a great night out. Please sit in the front row, I know no one wants to sit there but think how rubbish it would be if no one did.
This is an absolutley superb line up. Two headliners, one of which, Sean Collins, is the best act we have down there regularly. The late show will probably be Loretta Maine and Sean Collins, it is usually the two strongest acts on that show.
Its good you will need to book - re- the sitting near the front if its just you and your mrs going they will put you at the front or you can share a table with other to avoid the front. Me and the GF always go for the front - its a laugh and not too brutal.
